1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

aimThis study aims to comparatively evaluate the performance of four different artificial intelligence-based chatbots (ChatGPT-4o (Free), ChatGPT-5 (Plus), DeepSeek, and Google Gemini) in the diagnosis and treatment processes of dental trauma cases. MATERIAL AND

methodsBased on the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) guidelines, eleven fictional cases were developed, each representing different diagnostic possibilities of dental trauma. The cases cenarios were based on a standardized dataset including clinical examination, radiographic findings, and pulp sensitivity tests. All AI models were tested for three days for each case. Two researchers analyzed the responses using ablinding method according to five evaluation criteria (diagnostic accuracy, treatment plan appropriateness, splinting duration accuracy, antibiotic indication, and reference accuracy).

resultsAccording to the results, while no significant difference was found in terms of diagnostic accuracy (p > 0.05), Google Gemini showed the highest performance with 100% accuracy. ChatGPT-4o (Free) stood out with a 97% accuracy rate in antibiotic indication, while in splinting duration prediction, ChatGPT-5 (Plus) was the most successful model with 75.8%. DeepSeek exhibited the highest variability (p < 0.05).

conclusionsThe findings show that AI chatbots have promising potential as complementary tools in dental trauma diagnosis, but evidence-based validation, expert supervision, and methodological standards are needed for safe use in clinical practice.
